Question

When using Domino Designer 8.5.3, I have a bunch of custom classes added using the Java design element. I want to use a 3rd party JAR in my custom classes in the same way you would when using external JARs in xPages SSJS, via Package Explorer:

WebContent–>WEB-INF–>lib

However my custom classes aren’t picking the JAR up.

Is this a known limitation or have I got my configuration screwed up somewhere?

Answer 1

They are after you do:

Project -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries -> Add JARS…

update:

Frantisek Kossuth tells us about a nice shortcut in his comment:

in Package Explorer view (Java perspective, or add this view to
XPages/Domino Designer perspective), simply right click JAR file and
use “Build Path/Add to Build Path” menu
